Sunday, March 1, 1925

Sunday, March 1, 1925
Snow

We all went to Sunday school but I got too sleepy to stay for church. Went out to Mama’s for dinner and to see Mable and Winifred. Harry had left Memphis for the Mardi Gras and Florida. Thinks he will get into something else besides printing. We’ll see. He never did anything else but newspaper work. We played bridge and learned more from Mable than from Collins all winter They came over after we got home and played till 11.

(Harry is one of Ruth's brothers. She is the youngest in the family. Mable is Harry's wife and Winifred is their daughter (I think). All of Ruth's brothers were printers. Collins are the neighbors across the street.

Sitting around playing cards, talking and learning stuff (gossip?), some things never change. Seems like bridge and catching up on news and events go hand in hand. I know my mom learns a lot about what's going on in her neighborhood and amongst her friends when she plays bridge once a month with her bridge club!)
